Dubai Diligence Score

Verified data covers 32% of the methodology's weight - a headline score requires at least 40%. The categories with real data are shown below.
View score methodology
Exactly how this /100 was built. Each factor gets a 0–100 sub-score from verified data, then contributes in proportion to its weight. A factor with no verified data yet is excluded from the average entirely - never scored as zero or guessed - so the weights below re-balance across only the factors that have real data.
| Factor | Sub-score | Weight | Points |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price vs Market | 0/100 | 14% | +0.0 |
| Rental Returns | 78/100 | 11% | +26.8 |
| How Easily It Sells | 3/100 | 7% | +0.7 |
| Dubai Diligence Score | |||
Points = sub-score × weight. They sum to the headline score (small differences are rounding).
Not yet scored: Developer Track Record, Buyer Reviews, On-Time Handover Rate, Construction & Handover, Off-Plan Share, Location Strength - excluded until verified data exists, not counted as zero.
